Answer 2

To choose a president in the United States, a general election is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

A general election is an election where the citizens of a nation vote and appoint their representatives to the federal, state, or local government.

Democratic countries have general elections for decision-making assemblies. In these elections, general and equal voting rights apply, which means that every citizen over a certain age has the right to vote with one vote per person.

Presidential elections in the United States are a form of indirect election, where voters choose electors for an electoral college, which in turn rallies and elects the president and vice president. The presidential election is always held on the first Tuesday after November 1, after which the Electoral College meets in December and the newly elected or re-elected president finally takes up the new term of office on the day of installation on January 20.
